After a short summer break, Repsol Honda Team duo Marc Marquez and Jorge Lorenzo are all geared up and confident for the upcoming San Marino Grand Prix. The event will be taking place at the 4.2-kilometre long Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli from September 13 to 15. The circuit presents challenges to riders with its tight opening corners and fast-flowing lanes.

“We arrive at Misano in a good way after some strong races for us and after a productive test. During the test, we were able to try many things and get a good understanding of how the Honda is working around Misano this season. I am confident for the weekend but we will face strong opposition as always, especially after the test. Our approach doesn’t change, we have our own plan and we will work towards it and see what happens on Sunday,” says Marquez as quoted from Honda Racing Corporation.

“Each day I am feeling stronger and able to train harder than the previous day and the time between races has helped. I am looking forward to getting back on the bike and seeing how I feel physically on the RC213V. Despite not completing the full test, we were able to find some good information to be able to start the weekend well. In the past Misano has been a good circuit for me. So, I am hopeful that this weekend we can continue to close the gap.”
